I think I am going to take this course! I received the following announcement from the National Genealogical Society and I am very interested in the topic. I have heard great things about the instructor, Sherry Irvine, and Pharos courses in general. Would you like to join me for the course? I will post a review when I finish.
My British Isles Origins:
Where and How Do I Cross the Pond?
Pharos
Teaching and Tutoring Ltd of the UK, in partnership with NGS, is once again
presenting My British Isles Origins:
Where and How Do I Cross the Pond? This
four-week online learning course begins on 18 October 2012 and is designed
to show genealogists with British ancestry how to “leap the pond” and discover
their roots in the British Isles.
My British Isles Origins: Where and How
Do I Cross the Pond? offers students a mixture of history,
population study, sources, and research strategies. Its primary objectives are
to present practical guidance for launching research into the British origins
of immigrant ancestors and to offer help on building contextual knowledge of
migration patterns and history, at national and local levels. The presenter is
Sherry Irvine, BA (History), MSc, CG, of Courtenay, British Columbia, Canada.
